Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A good game not a bad one
It is rediculous the way people are acting towards this game blaming Rockstar for their kids getting a hold of this game. It is the parents decision to get them the game. Kids cant buy it themselves. They are also saying that it promotes violence it is not the game that promotes violence it is the way people react to the game that they think if they do this in real life it will happen this way or this wont happen.

If people got violence from grand theft auto we will probably be full of gun wielding maniacs shooting everyone they see. It is not the games fault or rockstars fault that some subhuman brainless moron did something stupid that may or may not be related to grand theft auto. I think it doesn't promote violence it actually relieves anger and stress and makes you fell better and have the knowledge that whatever you did in the game wont get you in trouble to all you GTA haters out there go play some barney if you dont like the game it is a good game!!!!!!!!!!!!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The best game ever made
Wow, Grand Theft Auto 3....where can I begin? This game is just great.

The game is about your playing as a criminal who's trying to make it in cities full of cops, gangs, and lots of pedestrians. The game is very, very realistic with a large variety of cars (from cars to really nice, fast, sporty cars, to slow boring cars that old people drive in) great variety of people (not only white people in this game, but you have black and chinese pedestrians/gangsters also) with people with all kinds of different clothing, different body sizes, (fat, or skinny) different voices, and alot of stuff like that. I was simply blown away from the highly amazing artwork and detail put into this game, and the maps and the cities....I mean the cities, buildings, roads, and places you see in this game seriously look like cities you would see in real life, I mean it is so creative, the architects or designers of this game really knew what they were doing with all the roads, buildings, and map plannings. I also like how they put city/county names in this game just like in real life. Very amazing professional work.

The whole game is about your playing as a criminal, whose trying to make it in cities full of gangs, and you will be working for alot of the gangs. There's lots of different missions...whether it's about killing a gang rival, stealing or robbing something valuable, busting someone out of jail, or all kinds of missions. If you're not doing a mission for a gang boss or a criminal, you can also do emergency car missions (like Taxi car missions, Ambulance missions, Police car missions, even Firefighter truck missions) Taxi Car Missions, is when you pick people up and drop them off at places for money, Ambulance missions are when you pick injured people up in an Ambulance and drop them off at the hospital, Police car missions are when you kill criminals who are breaking the law, and Firefighter truck missions are missions where you put out things that are on fire. You also have side missions, like finding hidden packages, doing unique stunt jumps on your car, and doing rampages (rampages is when you destroy something or kill people in a certain amount of time for money) and doing those side missions can help boost up your criminal rating also.

This is a very great game, endless hours of fun. It took me like 4 months before I beat the whole game the first time I played it, but each time I played it, it got easier and easier, and I found more hidden packages, and all kinds of side missions. Each time I beat the game, I delete my saved game, then start all over again, trying to get a higher criminal rating than I did last time. And you get a higher criminal rating by killing pedestrians, gangsters, criminals, doing gang boss missions, doing vehicle missions, and doing side missions. A very, very, fun game with tons of options. You can steal any car that's out there. You can randomly kill or beat up any pedestrian or gang member out there. It is so awesome and so much fun and exciting to get stuff started in this game in then have the whole police force after you. It's fun to just start beating up some gang members and have everyone else in that gang rush after you. The reason why Grand Theft Auto games are so much fun is because it gives you crimes and stuff to do in the game that you would NEVER be able to do in real life. You would never be able to just blow up any random car in real life. You would never be able to beat up some random person on the street in real life. You would never be able to run around shooting police officers or getting in fights with gangs in real life, because if you do, you would of course get in serious trouble. Do it in the game, and you're not hurting or harming anyone, of course. Lots of fun.

Oh, and also....about all the people who have been complaining about this game....about how it's too violent or whatever...this game is definitely not for everyone. I've also noticed that it seems like the majority of people who hate this game are mothers who have 9-14 year old kids. If you're a mom, whose over-protective, and all she can think of is having good strong morals, and raising your kids up to be nice, orderly, and mannerly, then no, this IS NOT the game for you, and no, you WILL NOT like this game! So quit running around talking about how this game causes more evil in this world or how this game could effect people mentally or how this game is a bad influence on people, and how this game is only good for people who want to grow up to be criminals in real life. Listen, this is just a GAME, and calm down, and people really need to stop over-reacting. If you can't be able to tell the difference between real life and virtual gaming, then no, you shouldn't be playing this game. If you're too mentally retarded to tell that grand theft auto is just a game, and you take it too seriously, and do the same type of acts in real life, then you shouldn't be playing this game. If your mind can't be able to handle all the crimes and violence, then again, you should not be playing this game. I really feel people should learn what I just said. Angry, disturbed mothers are always saying stuff like "People have gotten run over, because the criminals who did it play grand theft auto" again, if you're not mentally mature enough to understand that this is a game, then don't buy it, please. If a game comes out, and you don't like it, then you don't HAVE to buy it, and you don't HAVE to play it. Grow up, quit whining like a baby, and get some maturity and some common sense.

Other than that, I really enjoy playing this game, I got this game in October on 2003, and I still play it, up to this day. It is always entertainment for me, and it never gets old. Out of all the Grand Theft Auto's (I also have Vice City and San Andreas) I would have to say that Grand Theft Auto 3 is the best one out of all of them, and you could get the most fun out of it. It's hard to explain...even though Vice City and San Andreas are newer than Grand Theft Auto 3, Grand Theft Auto 3's settings, gangs, places, and storyline are just better than Vice City and San Andreas. The gangs in GTA 3 are easier to understand, the places, cities, settings, and roads in GTA 3 are much more nice and easier to understand (because the graphics in Vice City and San Andreas are different from GTA 3, and it looks too bright and blurry in Vice City and San Andreas than it does in GTA 3) and Grand Theft Auto 3, in my opinion is the best out of all Grand Theft Auto games, and my brother agrees also. Overall, if you like crazy violent action games, then this is a must have. Grand Theft Auto 3 has got to be one of the best games ever made.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Still the best incarnation of GTA
GTA3 is the epitomy of a great modern video game. In short, the fun seems endless; in a game where the prize is highly pined for (and not easily attained) the obsession with this game becomes sickening. Even after you finish the final mission, you will want to do it all over again, seeing how long it takes you while setting new personal records and goals to overcome the next time you play. So far, I have played the entire game twice, finding the process fun both times.

With the real objective of the game aside, the whole setting and extraneous features of the game make the game worth buying. My friends and I would have competitions to see who could last the longest in the game without dying or getting arrested, all while going on a massive rampage through the city with military tanks and zealous law enforcement officers on our tail!! Even driving around in the taxi is pretty fun, not to mention the vigilante missions and generally screwing with the pedestrians in the game.

In order to boil the entire game down into a few bullet points (no pun intended) here's the game in a nutshell:
1. Over fifty different missions of varying in degrees of hardness
2. Three different islands with completely different settings
3. 11 different weapons to "take care of business"
4. Cool cars modeled after real life luxury sports cars (also crappy cars)
5. Gang members hounding you and trying to kill you (especially when I was trying to accomplish something like a mission)
6. A twisted police force that will go after you even if you accidentally bump into their car
7. Trains and Planes (which you can fly with A LOT of practice and patience)
8. Different radio stations playing different types of music (there is even a talk station, which was my personal favorite)
9. Hours of endless fun that will undoubtedly consume your life and leave you wanting more

Drawbacks?
Well, the only obvious drawback, other than the fact that the game takes probably a week of non-stop play to beat (the first time), is the violence. If you don't like violent games or blowing defenseless people away with a rocket launcher, don't buy the game. I will be honest with you though, the graphics and sound is awesome, definitely a significant step up from GTA2 (which leaves something to be desired) The detailing of the characters and cars is impeccable despite the somewhat early release of this game (2001). However, I was somewhat disappointed with a lack of interactivity with respect to the buildings. I haven't played the other two incarnations of GTA (Vice City and San Andreas), but this isn't a big deal because the game is pretty time entertaining as it is.

Bottom line: buy this game if you are mature enough to handle the violence and miscegenation (oh yeah I forgot to mention another feature of GTA3: promiscuous sex). I haven't played the other two GTA's which have succeeded this one, but from all the reports I've gotten from my friends, they all say GTA3 is the best.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - GTA3 AND ONLY GTA3!!!!
GTA3 is probably the best game on earth with it's graphics, gameplay and storyline!!

The storyline missions all attach together and everything you do all makes sense with the story!!! The graphics are pretty good, and for some reason when you kick people to death when they're on the floor the blood that squirts out looks all squared shape sort-of, but to me it just makes the game a bit better!! Also having a character who dosen't talk is just awsome, so no more annoying comments on the street or "f**k you" conversations in the street!!! Also just having about 11 weapons dosen't bother me, since they all act really well, and when the character poppin' (shootin'/ firin') them, since he can't talk, he seems just like a real "I DON'T GIVE A F**K" type of crook for a good old "GRAND THEFT AUTO" game!!

The sound effects of a baseball and his fist when killing or simply hitting someone are just absolutely brilliant, the way the blood comes out depending on how he hits them!!! The game is relatavley hard but when you play it through again you'll be able to do the missions in just one or two trys!! You'll actually get excited about moving on and out to the next islands and actually getting to see what they're, since you'll unlock 4 things at the same time once you get to the second island ; THE AVAILABILITY FOR DRIVING BOATS, THE SUBWAY, THE CALLAHAN BRIDGE AND THE PORTER TUNNEL!!! Another thing is a new boss, and the good thing is that in the first island they won't let you get to the final missions without completing all the other missions by the other bosses by making up excuses to do with the story, the good thing about this is that when you get to the second island if you go back to the first wherever you go you'll probably get killed wherever you step foot in!!!

GET GTA3 AND YOU'LL NEVER WANT TO PLAY ANY OTHER GAME AGAIN!!!

thank you!!!






Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - What Makes This Addictive?
I got this game when I was six and I am still playing this very good game. For 2001 this is a really good game. People thought it was too violent. Well, you don't have to be violent in the game. Only in a couple of missions will you have to get mean. If you can't get Grand Theft Auto 3 buy Mafia. But this game gives 72 missions. I am still trying to get a 100 percent rating. By the end of the game you will only have 17 percent done. A lot of side things to do makes this the best game ever made. Just next time Rockstar makes A GTA game. Take out the Sexual Content and all the other things and make it like Grand Theft Auto 3
